Mo Jones, better known to the electronic music world as Mistress Mo, stands as a cornerstone of the UK’s Drum & Bass and rave scene.
Emerging from the mid-90s underground, she quickly established herself as a formidable force in Birmingham’s nightlife, earning a prestigious residency at the legendary club night S.L.A.G.
Her high-energy sets and deep selection helped define the sonic landscape of the era, making her one of the most respected female DJs in a rapidly evolving movement.
Over the decades, Mo has maintained a tireless commitment to the culture, most notably as the driving force and long-standing resident of Flashback. As one of Birmingham’s longest-running Old Skool events, Flashback has provided a platform for Mo to showcase her encyclopaedic knowledge of rave history while keeping the energy of the original movement alive for new generations.
Her influence was officially recognised in 2022 when she was featured in the “On Record” project, a tribute to the artists who have shaped the city’s rich musical heritage. Whether she is digging into the archives for a classic set or pushing the boundaries of contemporary Drum & Bass, Mistress Mo remains an essential figure in the UK’s dance music narrative.
